Marked Gains Wools competitive position appears to have made marked gains In 1961.

Womens wool suits were 10 per cent higher in use while those of other fabrics were 8 per cent under production of a year ago.

Hard work by all segments of the wool Industry made it possible. Future success is directly related to the amount of effort put out to keep this trend continuing. New let's talk about lamb. As optimistic a picture cannot be presently painted for lamb. The pendulum swing has been moving in a different direction. However, there are those in the sheep industry has whg believe the pendulum again started its backward stroke an industry leader recently said: I somehow feel we have reached the turning point and 1961 will mark the low point for some time to come. This sentiment is not widely spread among the rank and file of our producers, who have had a very bad time of it in recent years, but it has a very significant meaning coming from a well informed indvidual who only a short time ago could see no other direction but down. A major packer representative in New York recently said, There is no finer meat Item than lamb. Yet we now see lamb producers in trouble. Lamb has not kept pace with the other meats competing for the consumers food dollar. To brigthten the picture Is thei ncreasing desire of more producers through their local state and national wool growers associations to tackle the problems at hnd and come up with sound solutions. Purchase Plan Through an organized effort accomplishments were made in .1961; among them a four-yea- r extension of the National Wool Act, two lamb purchase rograms, new regulations reusing that graded foreign Iamb be labeled as to country of origin, additional USDA research on lamb palatability as well as taste, tenderness and odor comparisons between and foreign lamb, increased scabies and predatory control work and others. However, in their hsadow are only more and bigger problems. First in importance would probably be lamb marketing. Revisions in our marketing procedures which are forthcoming may include a variety of approaches as improving or changing the products sold or changes in the methods of producing, processing and selling. Progress has been made Fore-castesee slight improvements in the lamb market for rs 1962. More are people scious of lamb meat today than anytime during the last two decades. con- We can largely thank the American Sheep Producers Council, the promotion arm of the sheep industry, for these and many more advancements in lamb merchandising. Don Clyde, president of the promotion ' organization said, We have a good program and we are doing a lot of gbod things, but we have got to come up with something new and different if we are going to raise the price of lambs, and we think that something is research Into more 'lamb prod- ucts." Research Program A strong research program backed by vigorous promotion is fundamental behind any business success story today. Successful companies are a success today because their research departments kept them abreast of . the times, by developing new products and the sales force developed better methods of selling the product The sheep Industry is looking closer at research today than any time In the past Tariffs, changes, imports and their relation to the progress in the sheep industry is very much an issue of the day. Because of tariff and import regulations wool fabric imports have increased from 4.6 million square yards In 1947 to an all time high of 62.0 million square yards in 1960. In lamb and mutton imports we find the same trend. In the last five years we have seen an increase from 1.4 million pounds to 47.3 million pounds. In fact imports of an sheep products in 1960 amounted to, on a dollar value basis, e approximately 136 - per cent of our own domestic- production. Producers feel that they should not have to share any bigger portion of the foreign trade burden. They feel that foreigners will largely reap the benefits of any advances made through efficiency and research. The U.S. is the best market in the world and the rest of the world knows it.
